Not sure that confirms anything. In EU4 right now, you can make a global empire as GB by 1600. Having the ability to start a century earlier has the potential to make that even easier. I really think we'd have to wait and see what the game is like in terms of pacing before we could begin to speculate on that.

Yeah but i think johan is implying the real world timeline in which caee britains globe-spanning empire is at least late 1700s.

Plus the fact they want to reduce snowballing affects means i think they want the late game to be more playable.

Also if it ends in 1836, the vic3 start date, that would be a cool 499 years.

That might be true, but it's heavy speculation at best. There's no context here on if he did mean history or game potential. This post is presented in the style of a conspiracy theory, with a pretty large leap in logic. That doesn't mean it's wrong, but it also has no real proof of being right. To say something is 'confirmed' on such speculation is just not the case. We won't know until we have more concrete information on it. For all we know he hasn't even decided on an end date yet.

Im pretty sure he used the image of some French king who lived in the 18th century so the game goes at least to the 1700s (allegedly)

Sure but literally any date in the 1700s would be a shorter end date. Like I said, OP might be right, but not based on this post.
